Chapter 320: The Prince's Thoughts

In the middle of the afternoon, it was still early, and the palace and the last time they saw each other when Yu Yu left a year ago, it seemed that nothing had changed, it was the same tall city, heavily guarded.

Compared with the grandeur of the Taiji Palace, the layout of the prince's residence is more compact, with less access to the sky and more bridges and covered bridges.

"Princess Wei, please wait here, the slave maid will go and invite His Royal Highness the Prince."

"Hmm."

No one is allowed to enter and exit easily in the palace, Pingtong and Yu Tong were left outside the Taiji Palace, and Yu Yu was led by several stewards and maids in the East Palace alone, and chose a few convenient and unmanned paths, went to a hall in the side hall of the East Palace, served tea, and withdrew, leaving her to sit and wait alone.

The palace in the palace, the biggest feature is spacious, this small hall used to meet guests, is comparable to a banquet hall of the Wei Palace, the curtains and curtains are all a color, the wood and fabrics are all superb, and the tea case floor is spotless and clean.

Yi Yu looked around the furnishings in the room, picked up the hot tea brewed on the table, smelled the hot air coming out, there was no intention of entering, she didn't know the intention of the prince to summon her, but it was not wrong to be cautious.

I waited like this for half an hour, until the sun was already set outside, the projection in front of the house was elongated, and Yu Yu couldn't see the prince's person.

In the past, with her patience, it would not be a problem to sit here for a day, but now that she is breastfeeding, she has unspeakable secrets, and she can't just do it.

She put down the teacup that had already cooled, got up and straightened her clothes, and as soon as she walked outside the door, she was stopped by the two eunuchs guarding the door.

"Please also ask the princess to wait indoors and not to move around at will."

Yi Yu looked at the two arms blocking the door, and frowned, "Where is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now?" ”

"The minions don't know."

"Where's the waiter you brought me with you?"

"The minions don't know." The two eunuchs replied lazily and lowered their heads again.

Yi Yu's face was a little ugly, "Then who asked you to stay here, you won't know it, right?" ”

"......" This time they simply ignored her, and the hand that was blocking the door was not put down.

Yi Yu snorted coldly, and waved his sleeves to the two thin eunuchs who looked like white-striped chickens:

"Get out of the way."

The two of them were unguarded, and they were pushed to both sides by her force, almost falling, shaking a few times and holding on to the door frame to stand firmly, turning their heads to see that Yu Yu had already strode down the steps outside the house, and hurriedly rushed up, but he didn't care about his status and humility, and stretched out his hand to pull.

"Alas, stop!"

Yi Yu was grabbed by their wrists left and right and pulled back, staggered under her feet, almost wanted to sit on the ground, half of her shirt was ripped off her shoulders, and it was actually revealing the plain white lining inside, as well as a snow-white blade, that momentum, a few more pulls, half of her clothes will be torn off.

"You, you—let me go!"

Yi Yu was both shocked and angry, shouted, raised his foot and kicked back on the calf of a eunuch, leaving no strength left.

"Ugh!"

The kicked eunuch grinned in pain, let go of the remnant jade, and sat down on the ground with his calf covered, and the other saw this, his head was hot, and he actually reached out to hug the remnant jade from behind.

This time he was hugged tightly, and a pair of hands were wrapped around his waist and touched, and his face was green, and he subconsciously bent his fingers to touch the poison.

Li Chengqian walked over from the other end of the corridor, and at a glance saw the two people who were pulling outside the door, the fair woman who was hugged by the back of the waist, wasn't it the delicate guest he invited?

After being stunned for a moment, he shook off his entourage, strode forward, and said angrily:

"Presumptuous! Don't let go yet! ”

The eunuch was yelled, turned his head and saw Li Chengqian's ruthless appearance, and knelt on the ground in fright.

"Too, too highly, His Royal Highness the Prince."

As soon as Yu Yu was empty, he quickly straightened his clothes, retreated to the door, clenched his fists, lowered his head, and gasped slightly, calming his anger.

Li Chengqian didn't know that Yu Yu was angry, seeing her hiding by the door with a disgraced face, trembling with fright, her snow-white face was smoky with a layer of red, which made people pity and protective.

"Bastard thing!"

Li Chengqian kicked down the eunuch who was kneeling on the ground with one kick, kicked him twice, and scolded:

"This palace asked you to entertain Princess Wei, but you dare to make a move, do you take the words of this palace as a deaf ear? Come! Drag them down, and hang them upside down in the well, so that they may be sober and sober. ”

At the sound of the order, two of the guards who followed him ran up to set up the two eunuchs guarding the door, ignored their trembling begs for mercy, and pulled them out.

"Brother and sister," Li Chengqian turned his head, and the cruel color on his face receded, as if he was a trick to change his face, and apologized with a pleasant face:

"It's all because this palace is late, so you were frightened, are you okay?."

When Yi Yu heard his cruel punishment of the eunuch, most of his anger was already extinguished by shock, and when he saw that he was vigilant against his own appearance, he shook his head with a stiff face, not mentioning shame and indignation, and went straight to the point:

"I'm fine, I don't know why the prince summoned me to the palace?"

Seeing that she had experienced the embarrassment of Fang Cai, she didn't cry or make trouble, and she didn't forget her intention, Li Chengqian stared at her twice, stretched out his hand and led it into the house, "Let's go in and talk." ”

Yi Yu didn't want to stay here longer, but she knew that she couldn't refuse, so after a moment of hesitation, she lowered her head and walked into the room, and after Li Chengqian sat down, she sat down in the place where she had just sit.

"My brother and sister are now in the princess's mansion, but do you still have the habit of living?"

"Fortunately, the princess took care of me, and I lived very well."

"Hehe, younger brothers and sisters don't have to perfunctory the palace, and then how can it be compared to their own place, it seems that the palace is resting in the Taiji Palace, and I always feel that the East Palace is at ease," Li Chengqian looked at the Yu Yu with an understanding face, and said regretfully:

"The fourth brother made a big mistake this time, not to mention the intention of rebellion, and colluded with the Turks to kill the soldiers of our dynasty, which caused the anger of the officials and the people, and the palace had to seal the Wei Palace.

Hearing him cry here and fake mercy, Yu Yu figured out his intentions, neither answering nor interjecting.

"Bengong seems to remember that my younger brother and sister were originally distant relatives of the Huaiguo Gong lineage, and they were only recognized back to the clan later?"

"Exactly."

"I heard that Ling Zun died early, did Ling Tang take you to Beijing to look for relatives?"

was asked about the origin of the original compilation for outsiders, Yu Yu was suspicious, what did the prince want to do when he asked about this?

"It's not to look for relatives, it's an accident to be found by my grandfather's family, and I didn't recognize each other until later."

"Oh," Li Chengqian nodded, his eyes never took his eyes off her face, and he looked at it for a while, until Yi Yu was a little uncomfortable, and then suddenly asked:

"Is Lingtang also surnamed Lu?"

This is a very ordinary question, but it made Yi Yu's heart beat urgently, she couldn't decide if the prince knew something, nodded calmly on the surface, and said:

"My mother is a countryman, anonymous, and I was later given my husband's surname."

After she answered, the hall was quiet for a long time, and after that, Li Chengqian suddenly laughed, and the laughter echoed in the somewhat empty hall, a little colder.

"Your mother's surname is Lu, she is the youngest daughter of Lu Zhongzhi, the Duke of Huaiguo, married into the Fang family in her early years, and was later taken captive by the Anwang thief party, your two brothers, are the sons of Fang Xiang, when the Lu family was captured, she was pregnant with a child, it must be you, haha, a few years ago, the Fang and Lu families also had a quarrel because of this, and in the end, they did not reveal the identity of your family, the daughter of the prime minister, a distant relative of the Lu family, the real dragon became a fake phoenix, ridiculous, ridiculous."

Because of some psychological preparation just now, after hearing the prince tell her about her background, Yi Yu didn't show a look of surprise, looked up at Li Chengqian, who was overjoyed, and said:

"What the prince said was all a misunderstanding, the original case of recognizing relatives, the emperor also asked, Dali Temple has already investigated and interrogated clearly, and now you have turned it out, pointing to white and black, I don't know what the intention is."

Li Chengqian touched his chin and said:

"There is no need to hide it with this palace, if you don't have the bottom in your heart, how can this palace assert that I summoned you today, how much because of a heart of compassion, I don't want to see a rare woman like you, because Li Taixiang died and wants to point you to a clear path."

Listening to Li Chengqian's clever words to fool her, Yi Yu secretly laughed and asked him to show her the way, didn't that push her to the edge of the cliff.

Li Chengqian saw that she was silent, stood up slowly, walked towards her, and said seductively:

"This palace is not afraid to tell you the truth, Li Tai conspired to the throne, his father has already investigated, and blames Li Tai for being too anxious, moving his mind to the expeditionary army, and daring to collude with the Turks, that is, this palace does not want to put him to death, and his father will not bypass him, you are Li Taizheng's concubine, and if you are implicated, if you want to be convicted, the lightest is also exile, to that poor mountain and bad water, you will not live for a year or two more, and then more simply, give him death, you will not be spared, think about it, you are only twenty-eight years old, and you have not enjoyed the glory and wealth, You have to follow him to die in the countryside early, are you willing? ”

Yi Yu had to admit that Li Chengqian was not as straw as she thought, but she was not a brainless woman, not to mention that up to now, she still didn't know what happened to the expeditionary force in Gaochang, how the 30,000 army was "mutilated" to death by Li Tai, she didn't believe that Li Tai would really collude with the Turks and choose to plot the throne before he was fledgling, so Li Chengqian's intimidation and coaxing here were of no use to her.

She was just curious about what Li Chengqian's so-called "bright road" meant.

Yu Yu's doubts were quickly solved.

Li Chengqian approached her with dangling steps, bent down, and stared at her without blinking, which made her heart slightly hairy, this felt like a frog being targeted by a poisonous snake, as if she moved slightly, he would open his mouth wide and pounce.

And Li Chengqian didn't pounce, he stretched out his hand and gently put it on the tea case, and the back of the hand holding the cup was pinched lightly and heavily.

"You followed Hongu, how's that?"

As long as he thinks about it, his back trembles excitedly, the woman in front of him is from an extraordinary background, has good knowledge, is brave and strategic, and is worthy of both talents, worthy of an ambitious man to give birth to an invasion of **, but the most critical point is that she is Li Tai's cold-blooded and ruthless mongrel woman.

Yi Yu's pupils constricted, and his eyes glared angrily, he never expected Li Chengqian to start the idea of his brother's wife's room!

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince respects himself," she abruptly dodged her hand, the tea in the cup spilled on the table, she stood up by the edge of the table, tilted her head, and endured the churning and nausea in her stomach, for fear of annoying him, it would be unkind, so she had to force down the urge to slap him, and said in a deep voice:

"It's not early, the princess has made an appointment to play chess with me, and asked the prince to send someone to send me out."

"Hehe," Li Chengqian seemed to expect her to react like this, he was not angry or annoyed, thinking about the long future, straightened his waist, and said with a smile, "Didn't my aunt tell you that she went to Daming Palace today to wait for her father's illness, and she will not go back to the house in a short time." ”

Yu Yu was horrified, listening to his words, he actually meant to forcibly detain her!

"In that case, you can stay in the palace for a few days, and when the princess returns home, it will not be too late for the palace to send you back."

Li Chengqian said, without giving her time to react, and with a clapping of his hands, seven or eight palace ladies poured in from outside the door and surrounded the remaining jade.

"This palace knows that you have some small means, so I advise you not to use them in the palace and stay honestly, otherwise this palace will not mind taking the eldest daughter of the fourth brother into the palace and accompanying you as a companion."

The threat hit the weakness of Yu Yu, she clenched her fists, looked at Li Chengqian's distant back, her face was blue and red, half humiliated, half helpless.

For the first time, she realized so clearly that without Li Tai's protection, she was nothing in the face of this insurmountable power.

It was also the first time that he understood so clearly why Li Tai wanted to sit in that position.
